What If I Have A Lump Where My Spleen Is Fear Of Enlarged Spleen In Dog?

Fear of Enlarged Spleen in Dog? - what if i have a lump where my spleen is

My dog, Lila, is 9 years old, shepherd mix Austria. Recently, I discovered she has a bump on the left side. This is not so great, maybe the size of a marble. However, I am worried because it feels as if a body is relaxed, and I had a hunch that your spleen can.

When I think Lila has no symptoms and can be fixed on the side with the masses without any problem. No idea what could be?

m), then there is a concern. A veterinarian should be able to say whether (the spleen is not), hopefully. More than half of the spleen masses are malignant. Some of them are very aggressive. I try not to panic as when you want to be in the office anyway because of its small package, your veterinarian perform a physical examination to determine whether the spleen is important.

I think that is my only point is that if the tumor of the skin can be normal, but have it checked, and if they should ensure that it best done as soon as possible because you have a question about the spleen.

I hope all is well! Like a good parent concerned!

A package you want does not describe the internal organs in context. It is likely that a small tumor size (many tumors are not dangerous) or less likely, infection. It is a kind of benign tumor called lipoma or fatty tumor, it should look like in the very elderly dogs.Your FP joint.

To determine whether the internal organs are swollen or tender requires "touching" (tentative) could say very deep in the belly, and only an experienced veterinarian whether the facilities, the abnormal, or even the feeling than the body. I saw no visible lump or swelling on your pet, with a larger spleen.

Please take your dog to the vet if you believe that the spleen is enlarged. The rupture of the spleen and internal bleeding that is fatal cause. This can be caused by a tumor or cancer growth and may or benign. It may take several days before you see evidence of his discomfort, become lethargic and out of your food. Better to examine it from a veterinarian, if available, you can an ultrasound before they deteriorate. Dogs can live happy healthy lives without a spleen, the liver is used for cleaning and filtering of the blood responsible.

There's really no way to know for sure if your dog to the vet. We had a Dobe of older dogs that have a mass in the spleen. We, of course, had the opportunity to make a transaction (a dog or a person can live without a spleen), but if they are involved in cancer, they could easily spread to other organs. Mostly it is cancer. You first need a correct diagnosis, then you have it from there. Could be in all reality, something as simple as a fatty tumor. I wish him all the best.

I was 7 years old, Border Collie and a few years ago, our vet took a similar piece under the skin of my dog. It really bothers me, but said that sometimes develop the spleen only, but the return to normal after a few weeks, but it would take them to the vet to make sure that there is no tumor.

Could a type of tumor is probably not harmful. Are you a stomach ache at all?

This could be a tumor, but we are not veterinarians, and even though we have no way to diagnose a dog online.

Ask your veterinarian.
